How's this for a non answer, I think you should choose whatever will best help to sell the film. I agree with Sanjit and think shooting a scene is a good option in addition to trailer and short. I think what works the best is shooting a scene or short sequence. This was done for Sin City, and Sky Captain. It gives the investors a solid idea about what the film will look like and the quality of work you are going to deliver. I also think this is the best bang for your buck, plus it's really well done you already have one scene shot and ready to go. The trailer, while more $$$ per shot, would also be more $$$ per second, and probably cost more over all since you will have multiple locations, and each shot needs to amazing. Trailer might be a good route if you have a mystery or complex premise that you are trying to get across. I would totally write out every detail of the trailer and make sure it leaves off a big cliffhanger. I feel like a short film is how you get yourself noticed to make another film, especially if you're a director. If you make a short version of your feature, you run the risk of getting, "why would you need to make a feature since you can tell the story in a short".

I also thought the cinematography was amazing. I was very impressed. I thought the action scenes were really intense and well done. I really liked Sam Worthington, and I wished the movie was all about his character. The story was decent but had some flaws, especially towards the end. You could tell that the film had be butchered to reduce it from an R-rating to a PG-13. Overall I liked it. It was good but not great.

That's all it will let me upload for now. That's what I get for lurking and not posting. I uploaded all the images to flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/38825328@N05/...157618819195221 There is the link. Hopefully this works. Now everyone can enjoy. Can't wait to see more from you.

More from the Fuji 250D.

Because I really want to hear what Mr. Mullen has to say about these tests I downloaded your zip file and converted all 100 files into jpegs. I can only post 1 or 2 per reply so I'll try and pick some good ones and post as many as I can tonight. (It is 1:15am so it might only be a couple for now). First up is the Fuji 250D.

Thank you so much for the feedback. I've found that people either love the song or hate it. Actually more like it or hate it. No one has loved the song, but at least two have hated it, so that's no good. I've already got a couple ideas for replacement songs. I like the high contrast stuff, but you are right. No need to see it that many times. Again, thank you. Brad Webb

My Reel Please feel free to be brutally honest about it. Thank you.
